Designer Tom Ford sent Hayden Panettiere a bouquet of white roses after discovering she had paid to wear one of his creations to the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday. The actress wowed the red carpet in a black-and-white Tom Ford number and was more than happy to reveal she had bought it “off-the-rack” rather than send her stylist chasing the designer for a freebie. She explained, “It’s the first time I’ve ever worn him, because I’ve been begging… I feel sexy in it, I feel comfortable in it, and I’m in Tom Ford. I would wear a plastic bag if it was designed by him.” Ford, who dressed Naomi Watts for the Globes, was so taken by Panettiere’s dedication, he sent her a floral gift and a note thanking her for her kind words about him. Tweeting a photo of the bouquet and message, the actress wrote, “Such an honor to wear one of this man’s masterpieces! Thank you for my beautiful flowers!” Ford’s note read: “Dear Hayden, You looked beautiful last night. Thank you for your kind words. Much love, Tom.”
